PRESSURE stations are being set up across the country so that people can check on their blood pressure.
The Blood Pressure Association, a charity dedicated to raising public awareness of the importance of blood pressure, is running a testing week, starting on September 15.
The public will get the chance to get a free blood pressure check and pick up information on ways they can lower their blood pressure to beat stroke and heart disease, at stations in places such as health centres and supermarkets.
